Man, its only been a few days and I'm already hating NO fan worst than NE fans. Congrates on the SB. Also, I forgot the Redskins have Danny boy as their owner. Makes Jerry Jones look good. But not Al Davis bad. I think. I a Redskins fan, too.
I hear there a foot or two come DC's way, again. It never snowed more than 6-8 inches, the 4 years I was there. Hope you all survive. I do have family on the east coast and the DC area.

Hey Brent, how the heck are ya? Thinking Spring, yet?
Well, still trying to enjoy winter, if it would ever freakin' snow around here....wait...maybe tomorrow

I do have some grass plans in mind, got some manure on the beds, and will most likely need to find a good source for seed....I KNOW... HARTS~!!!

We really haven't had much of a winter yet, have we. I'm starting to wonder if this is the beginning of everything averaging out. I'd prefer it waited until I was out of the snowplowing business first, though.

Hopefully you'll get something to push around today.
This lack of snow might be my fault, as this year I haven't removed the plow all season, the wiring is all new and functional, and the hydraulics are leak free for the first time, possibly ever....should have left it a barely functional dripping mess, and we would be buried up to our necks....

Most definitely your fault!!! Actually the plow biz is more of a hassle now than anything else. I don't mind the money but I don't need it anymore and it really cuts into fun-time with the kids in the white stuff since I'm usually spent by the time I get home.

Last year was going to be my last year but I never got around to selling my Jeep, and couldn't say no. This year, though...

Clearly it is going to die as there are no eggs, bread or batteries!

We are getting slammed here now!
White out conditions and lots of wind too.
Nadine in Pa had to work all night as a nurse then get home. She had her Highlander and barely made it! Lost the road twice but managed to keep going!

I'm seeing some snow today. Most of my cohorts are stranded at home. I just selected 4HI on my Xterra's transfer case and motored on through it all - all 3 inches of it.

Snow started falling here in early December and hasn't melted since. See when you guys get snow it melts. Our stays around all winter. Mailbox has been buried for months now.

We've been using the wife's Xterra to get around in all this and I must say, it performs very well in the snow!
